Special Operations Team, huh?

You know I have a funny feeling that DOGS will soon start doing this, also.

Ya know?

An autopsy reveals a strange but true case of a man dead after shooting himself four times in the head.

More range time...

Police say the ex-wife might’ve been trying to wrestle the gun away from Moses when he accidentally shot himself in the chest. As for the next four shots, they say he did those on his own.

Bull cheese. If the cops are buying this woman’s story - then I need to see them about a bridge in Brooklyn I’m trying to sell.

Quite the most determined case of suicide I've ever seen!

Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.

Unless he was holding a machine gun, I don’t see how this can happen. Forensics would prove the angle of the entry wounds. If an ME ever came to me and said “He shot himself in the head four times”, my reply would be “Try again”.

Funny, that is the first thought that jumped into my mind after reading the headline.

He’s definitely two-upped Vince Foster and all those other victims of Arkancides who used to shoot themselves two times in the head behind their left ear using their right hand!

“Man Shot Himself 3 Times In the Head and Lives. The Fourth Shot Killed Him” That is how I would have writtent the headline.

The Beretta 93R is a slicked up version of the M92 that has a three shot burst setting. I could fathom three self inflicted rounds with one of those, but four?

Things that make you go, "Hmmmmmmmmmm....."

first shot himself under the chin. That bullet exited his face and went into the ceiling. They say he did that twice more with the same result.

It just must not have been his time to die.

Then a fourth shot entered his neck, severed his spinal cord and killed him.

Oops, guess it was.

I once tended to a dog that had been run over and then shot twice in the head. First bullet went between the mandibular bones and exited the mouth, missing the tongue. The second bullet went through the lateral canthus of the eye and exited just above the ramus. The owners, knowing they had botched the euthanasia, then called me and asked me to save the dog. She did fine. There was a little ataxia (staggering) because of the concussion from the auto and both bullet wounds took about five sutures total.

IMO the odds of a person botching a suicide are pretty good.

He should have stuck a 12 gauge in his mouth. Works every time.

Of course you get a closed casket.

I’m actually buyin’ it. Sometimes the truth is just so weird it just has to be true.

Damn, though.... Up through the chin and out the face? That -really- had to hurt.
